As many know, Scott Walker has been trying to pass a new budget repair bill that will change the lives of many public state workers. Being the child of two teachers and a possible future teacher myself, this will affect my life greatly. I have been hearing complaints and arguments about this bill for almost 2 weeks now. Although my community is not in support of the teachers or any other public worker protesting in Madison, I still feel extremely lucky to have gone to Madison and protest with my family for the past two days. I don't even know how to describe the emotions you feel when entering the state capital and thousands of people are chanting as the sound of constant drumming is taking over the entire building. It is truly incredible. I know many people are for this bill, but what most of them don't understand is that this is passed the point of money now, it's about rights. Taking away unions takes away the voice of the people.
Here's the actual bill itself. Please read it carefully before making judgements.
And here is a summary of the bill.
